EL SANTO, GOLD SPANDEX, and AUSTIN

[colleenaf]

Hello all you Texas types! I'm in your state breathing your air and stuff and most likely farting it out my tush! (I really REALLY love Tex-Mex.) You should come by and say hi. I'll be at STAPLE! in Austin this Saturday, March 1. It's HANDS DOWN the best show I do all year in terms of levels of awesomeosity. So many handmade craftiness, books, and

Those books are fucking awesome.

Did you know Madeline Kahn ad-libbed the "flames" speech that inspired yer multi-printed Madeline shirts? IMDB knows everything.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Or at least early birthday. I am totally going to send you a book for your birthday especially considering you starred in it.

I've heard that ad-lib thing before about the FLAMES though I've always wondered if they gave her any guidance or if she is just THAT AWESOME. I like to believe the latter.

IMBD does know everything. Which is why I have to keep moving that dead body. Damn you IMBD!

HOLY SHITIES!! Those books look amazing!!!!!!! You are one hard working girl!
also: I NEED A SANTO SHIRT, TO PURCHASE ALLOW ME!!!!
also: I want to see Leslie Hall!!! UNFAIRATIES ABOUND!

Can you believe I only sold Four el santo shirts? Granted I sold a buttload of other things, but you'd think in Texas there would be more Mexican wrestler fans! So now I only have enough shirts to wear for most of the entire month...which also means I have a butload of them to choose from for youu. I have pinkish/purple american apparael girlie shirts and brown baby cut tees. Which do ya want in which size. I shall give it to you for cheeeeeap. I owe you guys a ridiculous care pacakage anyway!

Leslie Hall was so awesome, though I feel fully-un-bedazzled. I'm thinking about covering myself in glue and rolling around in some sequins, because, I mean that's basically what hotel rooms are for, right???

[finkenstein]

I do believe the only way to truly trash a hotel room is to bedazzle it, completely.
I will take a purplish pinkish Santo in medium and do you have boys sizes? Eric wants one too, if it's american apparel mens a medium, if it's anything else a small, I guess black?
email me how much and I will paypal to you!

Fantastic shirts. I love em.

[colleenaf]

Yay thanks! Means a lot coming from a designing gal such as yourself!

Those 7 inch books are amazing, also, I will buy a Santo shirt, they are fantastico.

[colleenaf]

Sweeeeeet! I'm totally going to put them up in the store as soon as I get my tush home to NY. The 7" books were SOOO much fun to make, which again proves that I will always favor melting and drilling holes in things over sewing!

I'm also gonna post a code on LJ so my friends can get it for cheap so keep an eye out! I'll let you know when they go up. Santo is amazing.

How COOL is this stuff?? It's too bad that I can't transport myself to Texas, but I'm excited to say that I'm going to be attending my very first comic book convention in April. Apparently, being a YA librarian for Brooklyn Public Library has entitled me to a free ticket to the big to-do at the Javits Center.

[colleenaf]

I may actually miss the NYC show since we have the Texas Library association convention the same week. Doh! My publisher will be there though, so I'll teach you the code word or secret handshake so they know you're cool.

I have been so off LJ lately! How is the new job going?!?! I am going to read your journal RIGHT NOW.
